The three are:

  1. I am NOT Enough — I am not good enough — when it could be “You are enough. You are so enough it is unbelievable how enough you are.”
  2. I am different (so it is difficult for me to connect or variations of that) — when it should be we are all the same but each person is unique.
  3. I am anti-pollyanna. I will apply for this job, but I wouldn’t get it. The glass is half empty not because of the deepest fear.

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people will not feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone and as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give others permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” — former candidate for US President, Marianne Williamson in her book, A Return To Love
